NRL: The NRL 360 panel chat through the Knights roster and what they need to do to content for a premiership.
have been issued a stern warning to strengthen their halves sooner rather than later or risk losing superstar fullback Kalyn Ponga in the coming years should the fullback view his best premiership chances lie away from the Hunter., Anasta fears the Knights will be unable to win a premiership unless the club strengthen in “key positions” to ease the burden off Ponga’s shoulders and potentially unlock the football.
The Australian’s Brent Read agreed “they’re all good organisers” but stressed the Knights need “strike.”At 21, Englishman Pryce is an exciting prospect with a strong running game, but is yet to be given a consistent opportunity in first grade this season. League legend Gorden Tallis questioned whether Ponga’s enormous salary would be an issue in the Knights’ pursuit of an elite half, though Read insisted it wouldn’t be.
However, to Read’s point, if the club remains patient and waits 12 months before making any halves moves they may reap immense rewards. Some of those guys, namely Cherry-Evans, Walker, Reynolds and Townsend, represent highly unrealistic options for the Knights for a myriad of reasons.Whether the club will stick with Hastings, who has played lock in reserve grade after being dropped from NRL earlier this season, remains to be seen, while Pezet is a former Knights junior and highly-rated halfback that could have eyes on a long-term starting NRL role.
